Some nice parts but some that really confuse me. Can't see how mortops will last and on the other hand you have very heavy wheels.

Schwables are FR casting ust or full on dh ones? 1000 or 1350g? Because that seems really light.

I will replace the Fulcrum, by Flow EX. As for Mortop, I know they will not resist more than one season (or less ...).

Muddy Mary UST are FR casting (1100gr), I also have a pair of Minion DH. And I alternate between them depending where I ride.

What's that cardridge fast co2?
Im guessing a Fast Suspension Cartridge. I had one of the Elka Branded Boxxer Carts. Felt no difference in damping compared to the stock cartridge in a Boxxer WC or R2C2, and the reliability was near non existent.

Just some simple paint stripper, followed by a little bit of sanding with some fine grit. It won't be raw for long, this is just a step closer to it getting powdercoated flat black.

No Sunday anymore?
Actually picking up a pivot phoenix tomorrow to replace the Sunday.
The m9 is because I've always wanted to swing a leg over one since they came out. So I'll put some time in on it hapilly....

Went and did a REAL basic line down the berms, jumps and drops yesterday I need to dial the head angle in, and drop travel to 9" to see how the front handles.
It felt great had a little bit heavy steering feel in front which is adjustments and angle set and aside of dialing the ccdb in in was great. Really happy with first run experience...especially with all the adjustments and tuning possabilities it wasn't way out in left field it was still easily ride able.
